MERIDIAN : Menagerie of Reporting guidelines Involving Animals.

This website is a collection (menagerie) of reporting guidelines for research studies that involve animals.

Reporting guidelines are not risk of bias tools or quality appraisal tools. The reporting guidelines here describe how to report randomized controlled trials, observational studies and experiments.

Many disciplines/topics have also developed topic-specific guidelines. Both veterinary and biomedical examples can be found Other guidelines
